Chapter 147 The wolf turns into a sheep
"Your Majesty, whenever you say something, you will be very happy. Can you give me a seat and a cup of tea?"
This is the benefit of having fame and fortune, and it has changed from a subject to a minister. Of course, there are more benefits. [..com]
The little emperor was happy. The more courageous Zheng Lang was, the more calm his attitude, the happier he was. This was the demeanor of the future pillars. Do those romantic figures in the Wei and Jin Dynasties have the talent of the Zheng family? Is there any, is there any law? I like it very much and ordered: "Come, I will give Zheng Jieyuan tea."
Let Zheng Lang sit down, Zheng Lang said: "I started with the Xianchanyuan Alliance. Since Emperor Taizong's defeat in the Battle of Gaolianghe, our dynasty is very afraid of the Khitan. But isn't that the case? I will compare the previous battles of the Chanyuan Alliance. How many troops did the Khitan dispatch, more than 200,000, and how many troops did the Khitan have? 10,000 or 20,000, but after the battle, the Khitan threw away thousands of corpses and retreated miserably."
The little emperor also knew about this and praised: "Wei Neng, Zhang Ning is so majestic!"
"Yes, the two brave generals are admired by me. Then I went to Beiping Village, and as a result, Tian Min was killed and killed a little general, the Empress Dowager of Liao and the Emperor. Then I went to Baozhou and asked Yang Liulang's junior college Sun Mi to lead ten scouts, killing hundreds of people, scaring away a whole army of vanguards. Then I went to Hanguang Ridge, and General Gao killed more than 10,000 people." Speaking of this, Zhengzhou Lang sighed. The warfare opportunity of Gaoliang River was wrong. He had just destroyed the Han Dynasty, and the soldiers were tired of war, but were not prepared, and they were not cooperative. When they retreated, Cao Bin, the first "good general" of the Song Dynasty, was afraid of death. He ignored the tens of thousands of troops and fled in panic. The three armies lost their commander, which led to a disastrous defeat.
What is the combat power of the Song army and the Khitan so much?
Without further discussion, he continued: "At this time, the late emperor made a mistake, and the battlefield fighter planes changed rapidly, but the late emperor gave the formation map. Where did the hundreds of thousands of troops set up their formation?"
It is also the benefit of being a disciple. Just like other ministers, as long as they make sense, they can spit out the emperor's face, it's okay!
The little emperor's face turned red, which was indeed a big mistake.
"But nothing happened. The late emperor arrived at the city of Chanzhou, and the three armies were shocked! Li Jilong and Shi Baoji, two brave generals, led a group of soldiers who had almost never been on the battlefield. At the city of Chanzhou, they defeated the Khitan army and killed Khitan commander Xiao Talin and fled for more than ten miles. Your Majesty, are our Song army very weak?"
"No," Hearing these things, the little emperor finally showed glory on his face.
"Then my crossbowman Zhang Jue used a chuáng crossbow to kill Xiao Talin. After the late emperor arrived at the city of Chanzhou, General Li Jilong led thousands of infantry and thousands of Khitan cavalry to hand over the short-term soldiers. What's the result? He killed half of the opponent's thousands of cavalry on the spot, and the remaining so-called invincible Khitan warriors. Regardless of whether the Khitan Queen Mother and the Emperor would get angry, they became rabbits and fled back to the camp. Not only that, we surrounded the army from all directions. In fact, at that time, the Khitan did not negotiate peace with the Khitan, and most of the Khitans also had the intention of seeking peace. Maybe if Gong Kou said that, a greater victory would be achieved, but it is hard to say, there are four possibilities."
“Those four possibilities?”
Kou Zhun disagreed with peace talks back then. He didn't know that the Khitan commander was shot dead. He also discussed it. It was just a controversy, so it would be fine. Since Zheng Lang mentioned it, the little emperor asked curiously.
"The Khitan commander was killed, and several battles were not good. After several wars of our army, there were only more than 100,000 troops left. After several wars between us, there were only more than 100,000 troops left. Continue to fight, and these more than 100,000 troops will undoubtedly be destroyed, including the Khitan Empress Dowager and the Emperor. Anyway, it is a pity. Just like Emperor Taizong of Song attacked Liao, the right time, place, people and the opposite were beneficial to the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the Khitan was too deep and could not withdraw even if he wanted to retreat. However, Zheng Lang made an analysis objectively and continued: "The best result was to wipe out the Khitan army under the city of Chanzhou. Then the Khitans had no leader, and our dynasty took the opportunity to take down the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. With the help of our dynasty's powerful national strength, the ancient Great Wall was built, and it was the second time and for all. The Khitan Society was the second.
Immediately support a new emperor and appease each division, so whether he can take down the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is unknown. But there is a great victory in Chanzhou. The third possibility is that the city of Chanzhou was not surrounded and allowed the Khitans to cross the Yellow River. They are all cavalry, and once they are forced, the harm is far more powerful than Huang Chao. The Khitan's vitality is severely damaged, and our dynasty is also severely damaged. The first three possibilities are all. The latter possibility is very small, that is, the Khitan crosses the Yellow River, and the capital is empty, and the capital is broken by them, and once, the vitality of our dynasty is damaged even more severely. The Khitan supports the new emperor in time, so both sides have to compete for the recovery speed. If the Khitan's recovery speed is faster than our dynasty, and if this hatred is severing, our dynasty will be in danger."
This statement is fair.
The little emperor nodded repeatedly.
Which one is just a hypothesis, and only God can know.
"My dynasty is somewhat afraid of the Khitan, but the Khitans are really not afraid of our dynasty? Let's talk about what happened this year, the conflict between the Khitan Empress Dowager and the Khitan Emperor, Your Majesty must have heard of. And the Khitan Empress Dowager is really bad. She is not the Khitan Emperor, but her brother, Your Majesty. This time, you know why the Khitan sent Xiao Shi, the governor of Fengxian Army, and Zhang Tuipao, the young minister of the Shaofu, to congratulate the Empress Dowager, and then sent General Xiao Cha and Andong Jiedushi to congratulate Xia Hengmi? No, at this time, whether it was the Khitan Empress Dowager or the empress dowager, or the emperor sent ministers, they didn't want our dynasty to take the opportunity to go to war with the Khitan."
"So that's it, why didn't you say it earlier?" The little emperor almost jumped up.
This was simply enlightenment. Poor court officials and the generals of the border guards became something, and they were so scared like this if they changed the era!
Zheng Lang didn't know that he just analyzed the dynamics of the two countries and the psychology of the monarch and ministers based on historical knowledge from the overall situation, and asked strangely: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"Stop talking, you should grow up quickly," the little emperor shook his head. So many ministers actually made a child compete with each other, and he felt a lot of emotion.
"This will take you slowly, and it will be useless if you are anxious, and it will be useless if you are not anxious."
"Yes..." The cold joke made the little emperor laugh and cry: "But, this is..."
"Don't," Zheng Lang stopped it in time. Although the little emperor was not a militant, he could not start a war at this time. Don't think that the mother and son were in a bad relationship. Later, the Song Dynasty was on this. He suffered a great loss from the Xixia people. He was afraid that the little emperor would be impulsive. After all, he is still very young now, and there are always some problems with high spirits. He said: "The crisis of the Song Dynasty is not in the Khitan. As long as the Khitans get money, they basically don't want to invade our dynasty. The crisis is in the West."
"The west?"
"The biggest mistake in our dynasty in recent years is to watch the Dangxiang people grow stronger. The Dangxiang people have good luck, and Li Yuanhao has good luck."
"How to say it?" The little emperor made Zheng Lang stunned and said something.
"They were lucky to have taken Lingzhou from our dynasty. They happened to encounter the invasion of the Khitans, and both countries were injured, allowing them to successfully occupy Lingzhou. They also had good luck and got the two traitors Li Yuan and Wu Hao!" Zheng Lang said almost with a gritted teeth. Xia La, Wang Qinruo and Lu Yijian were still controversial, but these two Han jiān were the real national scum. Without the advice of these two Han jiān, there would be no most painful wounds in the Song Dynasty.
The little emperor thought for a long time and finally came up with it: "There are these two Han people in Dangxiang as ministers."
"Your Majesty, you must not underestimate these two Han people. Dangxiang's various expansions over the years were exactly the strategy they came out. However, luck was not only that, but our general Cao Wei defeated Tubo Li Lizun, and sent the young Siluo, who was close to our dynasty, to come to power, becoming the Zamp of Tubo. If Dangxiang wants to expand, he must solve two worries, one is Tubo and the other is Uighur. Although Dangsiluo came to power, Tubo was slightly damaged because of General Cao. That's it. When Dangxiang expanded, Su Nuer led 25,000 yuan to the point.
The entire army was wiped out in Maoer City, Tubo. Then Li Yuanhao himself was defeated by the Zongge River. However, Tubo split again, allowing the Dangxiang people to successfully seize a large amount of territory. Good luck is not over. Shazhou originally had our Han regime. The Cao family was very prestigious in Shazhou, and it was constantly splitting internally. Externally, it had a feud with the Uighurs, which was both injured, which allowed Li Yuanhao to take the opportunity to conquer the descendants of the Guiyi Army and the Uighurs. Your Majesty, Dangxiang should no longer be underestimated."
"Won't……"
"Your Majesty. Li Deming just died. Li Yuanhao came to power. He was not Li Deming. This is a very ambitious person. How capable is General Cao Wei?"
It is possible to say that Cao Bin is the best general, but if he praises it, it is possible that the first obedient general. The real general is Pan Mei and Pan Renmei! He deserves the best general in the Northern Song Dynasty. Yang Ye’s death was helpless. In the system of the Song Dynasty, the military supervisor often makes power greater than the commander, and it was forced by Wang Wei. He had to withdraw and take responsibility. At most, he could only account for 5% and Wang Wei really accounted for 95%. Speaking of the wronged in Hei Tian, Pan Renmei was the biggest victim of Hei Tian’s wronged in history.
Then Cao Wei was much more capable than his father, and he fought Dangxiang and Tubo, and he was like fighting.
The little emperor nodded.
"In the past, General Cao Wei heard about Li Yuanhao's knowledge, habits and love, which attracted great attention from the general. He also heard that this son liked to bring his followers to the court and the people of the Dangxiang. He even disguised himself for this son and went to the court to see the man himself. But this son had no face. General Cao was unwilling to give up and sent people to go deep into the Dangxiang and drew the image of Li Yuanhao. After seeing the image, he said, "It's a real hero! He even concluded that this son would be a disaster for our dynasty. Now that he is in charge of the Dangxiang, your Majesty must be on guard."
That's all I can say.
Could it be that there were some good things about Mizukawa later? Who believes it?
And they didn't dare to say too much, otherwise they would hear that they encouraged the little emperor to start a war against Dangxiang people for no reason, and all the civil servants in the capital would run to the inn and drown themselves with their spit.
There is only so much to say.
And he was afraid of being too weird, so he changed the topic and said, "So your Majesty, don't be afraid of the Khitan. In fact, I was very happy when I heard their words "Stealed".
"Why?"
"I just said all this. It is in our country and the true strength is that the Khitan is above our dynasty, but the gap is not as big as we imagined. If we abandon the war horses, their soldiers are really braver than our dynasty?"
After Zheng Langyi's analysis, the little emperor nodded and said, "It should be about the same."
"Yes. Although their territory is vast, is there a large population in our dynasty?"
"No."
"Is there any economical economy in my direction?"
"No."
"Not only that, our soldiers from all over the country are united, and the Khitan is composed of multiple ethnic groups. Have they had our soldiers in united?"
“No, either.”
"Yes, none of them are because they have a bad environment and are sturdy. But once they have liked calligraphy and painting since the emperor, or like civilized and elegant things like the people of the Central Plains, and have lost this kind of fierce style, what else can they have? A group of wolves turned into a group of sheep, and even if they have war horses, what can they do?"!
